Factors that can shift the demand curve for labour include: a change in the quantity demanded of the product that the labour produces; a change in the production process that uses more or less labour; and a change in government policy that affects the quantity of labour that firms wish to hire at a given wage. When the payment for labour is low, fills will be willing to employ more people than with an increased wage rate.

< PRS = RPS = 50^o (base of isosceles)

RPS = 50^o; < RSP + < PRS + < RPS = 180(sum of < s in a triangle)

< RPS + 50 + 50 = 180

< RSP = 180 - 100 = 80

then < PQR + < RSp = 180 (opp. < S of cyclic quad.)

< PQR + 80 = 180^o

< PQR = 180 - 80

= 100

y + 110^o = 180^o(angles on a straight line)

y = 180 - 110

= 70^o

x = y(corresponding angles)

x = 70^o

Frictional unemployment is a type of unemployment that arises when workers are searching for new jobs or are transitioning from one job to another

Frictional unemployment refers to people who are simply moving from one job to another, but are taking their time. It is part of the jobless total caused by individuals who are spending time searching for another job, or perhaps are taking a break before beginning with a new employer. Even in a country where there is technically full employment, there will always be some frictional employment, simply because employees change jobs occasionally.

Since tan y = \(\frac{2}{3}\) and LN = 4

tan y = \(\frac{2 \times 4}{3 \times 4} = \frac{8}{12} = \frac{4}{6}\)

then tan y = \(\frac{opp}{adj}\)

MN = 6cm

Area of angle LMN = \(\frac{1}{2}\)bh

= \(\frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 4\)

= 12cm³
